Grandma Grace Remembers

Grandma Grace has a great memory and because she lives with us, we get to listen to her memories of things she has done or has seen.
Today as Russ and I were talking with her, Russ told her of how he had gotten some elderberries from the hike he took with his Scouts this morning. He planted it in a container, to see if he could grow some for a Native Southern California Plant Garden he plans on having. Grandma repeated the word elderberry and then told us of how Grandpa had gotten some elderberries from someone he knew and he tried to make some elderberry wine. He left the elderberry wine fermenting in the kitchen and he and grandma left to go somewhere. When they got back, they found the kitchen splattered in pink as the fermenting elderberry wine had exploded!
